Those who decide to see the islands on board the Endemic will experience the best the islands have to offer. Genovesa, known for the many species of birds that live there, and Española, famous for the Waved Albatross colony, are only accessible to passengers on cruises.
You’ll also need to take a cruise if you want to see the western islands, as Fernandina and most of Isabela islands can only be seen by cruise. The modern cruise ships like the Endemic are safe, comfortable and have all the amenities you would expect from a high-end vessel.
The Endemic, for example, flat screen tv in the briefing area and passengers lounge, Blu-ray player and air conditioning for hot days.
A typical day on a luxury Galapagos cruiser like the Endemic includes a morning expedition to a visitor site to see:
Frigate Birds, Blue-footed Boobies, sea lions, giant tortoises, iguanas and/or Galapagos Penguins, followed by a delicious lunch on board, an afternoon trip to a spectacular snorkeling spot and then another gourmet meal for dinner.
Cap this off with a cold drink on the sky deck while watching a dazzling sunset and you have the perfect Galapagos day!
The Galapagos Endemic has an enviable itinerary, making visits to all of the most remarkable visitor sites the islands have to offer. Some of the more memorable visits on our itinerary include Punta Espinoza (Fernandina Island), home of the extraordinary Flightless Cormorant and a teeming colony of marine iguanas.
Snorkeling trip off of majestic Kicker Rock, where fortunate guests may see a school of hammerhead sharks, and a stop at North Seymour Island to see nesting Frigate Birds and Blue-footed Boobies as well as sea lions and the elusive land iguanas.
Please note that the itineraries of all Galapagos cruise ships, including the Galapagos Endemic, are set by the National Park service of Ecuador. Therefore, it is subject to change.
